Primary Identifier | MGI:1927243 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 56044 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables GTPase activity. Involved in membrane raft localization; neural tube closure; and regulation of exocytosis. Located in myelin sheath. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; eye; heart; and skin. Orthologous to human RALA (RAS like proto-oncogene A). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit complete preweaning lethality and exencephaly. [provided by MGI curators] |
